@@marietellez6021 The rich avoid taxes by taking out loans based upon property. The value of the property value rises such that the loan gets rolled over since the value of the collateral rises. So instead of paying taxes on rising capital values spent as capital gains you are a debtor who has property. So by the magic of increasing debts and capital gains not being taken you avoid income taxes. Now you see how the swindle works and why many companies no longer pay out dividends.

Yes, let's blame the victim. That's the mindset that allows someone to head the largest for-profit hospital system, one that defrauded Medicare, Medicaid & Tricare - which SETTLED at 1.7B in fines - to run for and win a gubernatxorial seat then a senatorial seat. Who, as senator, was leading the charge to sunset Social Security & Medicare. (The only silver lining is that said politician was tasked with heading senatorial elections and blew through the money he had access to with little to show for it. That committee might want to audit their books & if they were conned then that's on them for putting him in charge.)

This is the same problem many politicians have once they get to Washington, DC, they become consumed by greed and easy money by either accepting bribes also known as selling access to “donors” and then use that money to illegally do insider stock trading and in doing so they lose all their integrity and morals. It is a real problem and these politicians need to be arrested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and prosecuted by the DOJ and if those trusted to be put in charge of those law enforcement institutions are also compromised too and doing the same thing they too need to be prosecuted also.

It is now extremely difficult to get anything approved even when you are a patient with legit documented needs. Medicare went from one extreme to the other. Now it takes several months to just get approved for a replacement manual wheelchair. In response, the prices skyrocketed for all these goods. Power chairs now go for 50k +.
